My first order was a groupon which went fine; the wine quality was actually not bad for the price. I then ordered a number of bottles off the website that were on sale. I received an email confirming what I had ordered. When the shipment arrived, all the wines were different. I had ordered mostly white wine and what arrived was red. When I called, the agent told me my selections had been substituted because what I ordered was not in stock. He said I would not be able to get the wines I actually ordered, even though when I ordered them they showed as "in stock" and I even received a confirmation email and shipping email with the wines I had selected. He said I could send back the entire case of red wine for a full refund or keep the wines they sent me and he would credit be back $25. I took the credit, although I am still annoyed I didn't receive any of the wines I ordered and I wish someone had told me all my wines were being substituted so I could have canceled the order altogether. With so many other wine company options available this was the last order I will place with Wine Insiders.

Hi Conor S.,

Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback, and I do apologize about the experience you had. In the unlikely event that a particular wine is unavailable at time of shipping, we may substitute a wine of similar style and of equal or greater value in your shipment. With that being said, you definitely should have not received red wines in lieu of white wines and you should have received communication regarding the change. I do apologize if this was not handled in a way that is up to our standards. If you'd like to discuss this further, feel free to give us a call at Customer Service (800) 615-7304 Monday through Friday 9:00am – 8:00pm EST or send us an e-mail at info@wineinsiders.com.

Sincerely,
Wine Insiders

What a joke! Prices are not back to the way they were. They would be average 50% off original so...
